Thor Posted November 4, 2016 Report Posted November 4, 2016 Actually this was more of a how to for a leather worker on facebook whom I wanted to help out. So since this is right below my desk and I'm spending long hours on my desk as well, I'm finally having something to place my feet on. Also works as chair now. Quote
Members Rohn Posted November 4, 2016 Members Report Posted November 4, 2016 That is very beautifully done. Quote
Members SamB Posted November 4, 2016 Members Report Posted November 4, 2016 As a chair I can understand, but it's bad taste to put your feet on such a beautiful work! Quote
Members VTleather09 Posted November 4, 2016 Members Report Posted November 4, 2016 Dang! The lace braid and the sunburst are sweeeeet! Quote
Members Brown64 Posted November 4, 2016 Members Report Posted November 4, 2016 This is beautifully done. Thanks for sharing! Quote

Members TinkerTailor Posted November 5, 2016 Members Report Posted November 5, 2016 It is amazing. I personally couldn't use it how ever, not because it is too nice, I think nice things were made to be used. Because of the number of times I have in a millisecond grabbed the wastecan and squeegeed the spilled coffee/smoothie/dye/paint/whatever off of the bench/desk/table into it. I would have forgotten it was on there and wrecked it in a fortnight. Quote

It's actually pretty comfy. Now I have to make myself a new office chair, cause I broke the laminated wood on the current one. So I guess I'll be buying one from where ever and cover it with some nice leather and some tooling. Quote
Reegesc Posted November 7, 2016 Report Posted November 7, 2016 Wow, absolutely gorgeous, and even cooler that it's a wastebasket lid. Like that old Circus saying: "If you can't do it over the top, why bother?" Quote

Members Windrider30 Posted November 10, 2016 Members Report Posted November 10, 2016 holy crap!! Love the whole thing especially the braiding for some reason I am drawn to braiding..may have to figure out how to add some to a corset or two. Quote

Don't how it would be on a corset, but you definitely don't want it to become to thick. So a thinner lace than this one maybe and eventually just a double loop braid instead of a Mexican round braid. Takes less time and less braid. Quote
Members Eddie Q Posted November 11, 2016 Members Report Posted November 11, 2016 Outstanding work Mister !! It sure would look beautiful as a bar stool Quote
